Welcome to Learn DirectX

This tutorial series will walk you through using the latest DirectX graphics API to create C++ graphics applications from scratch, both for Windows and Linux. Each tutorial will present a small sample to illustrate specific theoretical concepts and their practical implementation.

Designed for beginners with no prior knowledge of computer graphics or advanced mathematics, this tutorial series relies on basic C++ skills and requires only a fundamental understanding of high school math, including algebra, trigonometry, and geometry.

To compile and run the samples, you must first download the corresponding code, available on GitHub in two repositories:

• DirectX-Graphics-Samples

• LearnDirectX-samples
